Rachmistrivke :). That is a Twersky family Chassidus, from Reb Mottel Chernobyler. The other one I don’t know at all.
Skvere also comes from Chernobyl. I don’t know if Lipa is really still part of Skvere, but his clothing comes right from Chernobyl – AFTER the nuclear accident!
The Hungarian kanoim – Dushinsky, Toldos Aharon, Satmar, Pupa, Tosh and Erloi – are not really tied into the Baal Shem Tov (Satmar is connected to other Chassidus by marriage more than anything). They are closer to the Chasam Soifer in their hashkofoh, and the levush is more a way of showing they are sticking with the old ways.
